Anyone done an SR20DET conversion successfully?
 
Just wondering if it's cheaper than rebuilding my 1.8 SE engine from scratch.

I would say go make an intro thread, then try asking dumb questions!




in before ban... :giggle:

YES.

We are all secretly running them. its pretty much a given on our cars. Drop right in with no modification and is super easy to get working.

pm "Hyper" for specs on the most current coolant re-route. Without it you're pretty much limited to only 600hp max.

I smell a troll!

18psi 11-02-2010 01:24 AM

no he's legit.


spamming with the 1st 10 posts and asking stupid shit is totally the norm nowadays:D

600 hp? I swapped the turbo from an SR20 onto my miata 1.8 and I made 750whp on a stock bottom end with 1000cc injectors and a water to air intercooler.

that's because your car is green.

the other colors put down way less

I thought about painting it a different color green, like perhaps Brian Spilner green, but I heard he's still a busta.

18psi 11-02-2010 01:36 AM

don't do it. you'll lose 100hp

WonTon 11-02-2010 01:39 AM

painting it pussy pink will get you way more HP mayne!

18psi 11-02-2010 01:39 AM
